A chronological exploration of literary or film milestones in geek culture from 1964 on. Excuse the ADHD as I discuss other things as well.

Month: December 2015

Chris Fischer is another local artist and friend who I got to do a piece for the blog. And it’s beautiful.

I’m ashamed to say that this was done for my examination of 1987, which should have been done over 6 months ago. I have been sitting on this piece for so long, wanting to post it, but being so delayed and slow that I haven’t found the right time to do it.

One of the reasons I have respect for Chris and why I love his art is because he, likes me, puts everything he has into what he loves. The 3 franchise’s in the image, Robocop, Star Trek TNG, and Predator are just 3 of the things that I know he is an expert on. If you ever get the chance to have a discussion with him, his vast knowledge permeates and enhances the discussion. You can see this expertise shine through in his art as well.

I feel like this is the perfect time to showcase his work because of Star Wars. This is another franchise to which he puts his heart into the art. These are a couple of pieces he has done during the lead up to The Force Awakens. I think the Boba Fett is awesome, but the Vader/Padme is hauntingly beautiful. Enjoy.

Less than 24 hours to go until Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and I couldn’t be more excited. I have my ticket for the 7:00 showing, the earliest I could get, and I am counting down the hours, minutes, and parsecs to go. That makes sense, right?

Since October, I’ve been pretty absent at this site. It’s because instead of taking in material I’ve been working on putting out. I have 2 longer stories I’m working on, and have also been working on short stories.
You chan check out the shorts as I post them here, at Graeme Writes.
I do plan on writing more here, when I have a little more time. As it is, I am usually just writing during my work break.
